Self-injury Myths
Wedge from LifeSIGNS
Drowning, not waving. Everyone needs and deserves attention, and it’s bizarre that some people see ‘attention seeking’ as a reason to ignore a person and their distress!
Self-injury is not ‘attention seeking’ but can indicate a ‘need for attention’.
In this lighter talk, we’ll cover the many myths around self-injury (considering age, gender, purpose, mental illness, addiction, pain, and suicide).
